Embracing Active Travel in Schools
Store Fittings Direct supports AActive Travel England.
Today, schools have a big job: to help make the world greener and keep kids healthy. That's why so many are saying 'yes' to active travel. It's all about using bikes, scooters, and our own two feet instead of cars. And we're here to help with safe, strong gear that schools need to make this happen.
Why Active Travel?
It's not just about getting from home to school. It's about making that journey good for our bodies and the earth. Here's how our gear like scooter racks, bike shelters, and cycle shelters helps schools and kids:
- Happy Kids, Happy Planet: Riding a bike or scooter makes kids stronger and happier. It’s an exercise that's fun!
- Safe and Sound: No more worrying about stolen bikes or scooters. Our shelters and racks keep them safe from thieves and bad weather.
- Kids in Charge: When kids scoot or cycle, they're the boss of their trip. They learn to look after their stuff and think about the planet's future.
- Friends on the Road: Our shelters are spots where friends meet and chat. They make schools more than just classrooms.
- Greener Communities: Kids on bikes or scooters mean fewer cars. That’s great for everyone! Less car smoke helps keep the air clean.
- Quieter Streets for Everyone: Nobody likes traffic jams. If more kids ride to school, there’s more room on the roads. Everyone can breathe easier, and it’s safer, too.
Our Promise
We're all about making this big change easy and rewarding. With our gear, schools can really get behind active travel. It's good for kids’ bodies, brains, and the world they’ll grow up in.
What's in Store?
- Scooter Racks for Schools: More kids are scooting every day. Our racks keep scooters safe and tidy. They fit right in and make sure scooters stay standing.
- Bike Shelters: Bikes need a home, too. Our shelters keep them dry and safe. There’s a perfect size and style for every school.
- Cycle Racks for Schools: Every bike needs a spot to park! Our cycle racks are just the place. They don’t take up much room, keep bikes upright, and help schools support healthy habits.
